In this powerful and emotional episode of The Meningioma Cast, I walk you through the moment I sat across from the neurosurgeon and saw the tumor for the first time. I talk openly about what it’s like to be told you have a brain tumor—and what happens next when your entire life changes in an instant.
From diagnosis to surgery, and waking up unable to walk, I share the raw reality of recovery, identity, and finding meaning in moments that break you open. This episode dives deep into who we are after the trauma, and what it means to heal—not just physically, but emotionally and spiritually too.
If you or someone you love has been diagnosed with a meningioma or any kind of brain tumor, this one’s for you.
Make sure you like, subscribe and pass on to those who could use some fairly light talk on some pretty heavy subjects!
Look brain tumors aren’t just medical—they’re personal.
